I received my performance review which is a money review in October 09 and I received the worst raise I have ever seen. twenty cent. we were told that a flat amount of money would be given to all assoicates because of the econimie and I overheard a couple of young men say they got the best raise in a long time. one sixty five cent.

we have a manager at our store that seems to discriminate toward women. I'm starting to here more women in the store say this and beleive me he shows more favoritism towards men and he has women do anything out of the norm than men and I think he is discriminating towards a lot of women at HOme Depot. what can be done. once you say something than its management retiliation on you and that is not good. what can I do

In 2007 i was injured on my job working for HomeDepot. my Dr would not release me to return to work until I had surgery done. HomeDepot terminated me, so I lost my job and my health insurance. I obtained a lawyer,and in Jan.2009 Sedwick Insurance Company settled. They then left HomeDepot and Liberty Mutual Insurance took over. They WILL NOT answer my lawyers letters or calls. Since that time my health has gotten worse and i have no means to do anything about this. I do not know where to turn anymore. I ask if there is anyway you can help me get this settled once and for all.

Recently T. was terminated for wearing a button! I've had enough of large companies trying to be so politically correct in order to appease everyone. What the heck is the difference between a button that states "One nation under God, indivisible" AND "United We Stand,"? Hmmm, is Home Depot that politically correct that they are afraid to offend anyone with the word God? You've got to be kidding me here. I foresee a big payday in this former employees future, be it settlement out of court or in front of a judge and jury.

Home Depot is going to lose this one big time. And lose loyal customers like me left and right. I've seen all sorts of apron adornments on employees here in Naples, Florida both at Store #280 and at the Davis Blvd. store. Sad that a company as large as HD is terminating employees for something so trivial in such trying times. I will take my business to the Lowe's 1/2 mile right around the corner here in Naples, better service anyways, not quite as good of prices or selection but I will make do. Good luck with this case, your gonna lose! I will never shop at Home depot again!

Smith & Willis, a subcontractor of Home Depot, installed central air to my home on July 3, 2009. The work failed the county inspection and required four pages of corrections, including but not limited to exposed wires, leakage of gases into my home, etc. The Arapahoe County inspector's office also notified me that the company likely completed some of the work illegally without the proper license.

I have contacted Home Depot and put the 3,000 installation charge into dispute; however, their "final offer" was a 500 "goodwill gesture". I am shocked that both companies are refusing to acknowledge how completely unacceptable their work was. My familiy's safety and well-being was put at risk and I still do not have a properly installed system yet am being asked to pay 3,000 for it.

When an item is returned, no one ever checks to see if all the parts are the package. So when they just put it back on the shelf, the next person who recieves it will be short of parts. Also last week was in for a plumbing supply tube it was miss marked and it took me two trips. I should of gone to Lowe's instead, it would of saved me an extra trip. Some employees are to lazy to help, they just say we don't have that, mainly the younger ones. I won't shop at home depot if I don't have to. When the store manager is contacted, he says to write the corp. So that is what I am doing.

This store is IMPOSSIBLE-evening for buying light bulbs. No one cares the employees I dealt w/ were rude and inept not only to me but to the other 8-10 persons in line!! It is consistently poor all around. My husband will drive an extra 20 min to go to Lowe's or pay double not to be bothered! It's not worth the frustration..they couldnt care less if they make the sale. I have seen men walk right out after putting their goods down..they gave up in the line!!! the biggest problem is not interpersonal skills or empathy..they could care less about a customer.

dustin of puyallup, WA August 17, 2009

Cashier did not have enough change for a 20.00 bill. Called head cashier, who did not come. The customer in line behind me had a 1000.00 purchase that was somewhat complex. Again called head cashier who came immediately, but did not bring my change. My purchase was not processed and I left the store.

I contacted the corporate office, and corporate had Renee' a manager, contact me. She explained that the employees in question had been retrained, but could not say what was to become of me - after all I had to leave the store without my stuff. I explained to Renee' that I would not be shopping at the Home depot again. But she did not care . . .I won't shop there anymore. They clearly could care less about small customers.
